That's bad. Check resistance to ground on all four motor wires, Green-Brown-Gray-Red. I am concerned, because I never ground the case until I have the unit working and am checking for shorts to ground, which can happen inside the motor and if the fingers are too long (that's pretty rare with my new fingers, I have an exacting length I cut them to.
You need adequate tension on all fingers and the contact segment needs to be in good condition, with the phenolic insert in the center in good condition, as tall as the two metal shorting bars. I install a Heli-coil in every unit now for the 3/8"-24 bolt on the back that maintains the position once adjusted on the trans.
